When I talk to people who vote differently than me I try to find common ground to start from. Right now hatred of billionaires is that common ground. How out of touch does a politician have to be to think their constituents would unite under the common goal of "protect billionaires"? This is weird

🚨 LEAKED: In a fundraising appeal, Mike Rogers told potential donors, "When you stand with my Senate campaign today, you are directly shielding Elon Musk" from potential investigations into the harm caused by DOGE cuts. Rogers asked for donations so he could "protect Elon."

I saw a metaphor today. Three men huddled under the awning of a locked church while the rain poured down. They said their camp in the woods had been flooded.

We need more movies and shows about the labor movement and what it took to earn protections we take for granted.

Knock it off. This is how we ended up here. Everyone I knew assumed Hillary would win, so they didn't bother to vote. We don't call elections until they're over. Don't do this and stfu about "blue waves" until after the election.

He’s saying there’s a 52% chance that Democrats take control of both the House and the Senate. 33% chance Democrats take control of just the House 15% chance Republicans retain control of both the House and the Senate youtu.be/6Uvya7fO1Z0

I think Joe owes me a tank of gas because his book was way too good. Every time I got home from work I had to keep circling the block because I didn't want to stop listening. This is the best book I've listened to in a very long time. Good job, Joe!

Just thinking about how over the years, I've expressed to my mom how important it is for me to have some time alone everyday to recharge So last time she came to visit she had every single minute of her visit planned including, "Every day from 1130-1 is your alone time, ok?" I was pretty grateful.

Sure, it was a little weird to have it scheduled, but she very deliberately respected my needs and I really appreciated that.

Sometimes when our kids do something kinda awful, it makes an opening for a deep intimate conversation about intentions, impact and empathy. Also, he's grounded until he unfucks the situation and I have no idea how he's going to do that. I told him changed behavior and an apology is a good start.

Sometimes there's a crisis that happens on a child's birthday. Once we had to reschedule my daughter's birthday party due to a hurricane. Once it passed, we partied. Can we please reschedule America 250 for three years from now due to a fascism that will pass soon?

It sucks that they make us pay for stadiums that we will never be able to afford tickets to.

Jimmy Malone@malonespeaking.bsky.social

Unfortunately, politicians and sports broadcasters keep convincing gullible citizens that stadium deals are economic drivers for the region. We keep getting scammed. www.currentaffairs.org/news/taxpaye...

My son just told me that when the sun never set on the British Empire, the sun also never rose on the British Empire and I'm left deep in thought.

I sometimes wonder if my feelings about AI are like people over 100 years ago ranting about the evils of cars and electricity. Maybe I'm crazy. Then I look around and think, "maybe they were right."

My face lit up when I realized she wasn't MAGA. She said, "I knew you weren't MAGA right away. You said kind things." I need no further compliments ever. I'm really glad I don't give any MAGA vibes. I always feel like i fit the demographic so I'm afraid people will assume I am.

May I propose collective action against AI? Don't use it, don't patronize businesses that use it. When forced to use it, do things that make it so confused its forced to find a human for you. Add in nonsense words that a normal human can decipher meaning, but #AI can't.

An example would be, if AI calls you, ask it if its mother knows its calling strangers. At the drive thru ask for strawberry fields forever lemonade. When forced to use it, confuse it. We don't just have to accept that this is our life now.

"Mom, have you ever heard of Apollo 13? What happened?" "Some astronaut's shuttle broke down in space and they had to figure out how to fix it in order to get home and not die in space. And Tom Hanks was there"

I think we should all wear full on formal wear on the day it finally happens.

derek guy@dieworkwear.bsky.social

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

My local news just did an article on the SAVE act about what documents you'll need to vote. There were so many "Nu-uh's" that I think MAGA might be disenfranchising themselves.

Last week, I saw my first (and second) measles cases ever. Vitamin A and beef tallow weren't helping them.

Honestly, guys, I don't think she's that interested. Her running away is a good sign that you should leave her alone

My son just asked what menopause is and his little sister just told him its puberty but for old ladies. I was formulating an answer that would have been way more complicated but there were no more questions.

My new favorite thing when someone uses the term "woke" in a derogatory manner is to innocently ask, "What does the word 'woke' mean?"

It's been perfect for helping me quit kratom. I've mixed it with kratom powder gradually over a year, until there's no more kratom in my matcha. I started drinking kratom in 2016, when someone told me it was a nice tea that helps you feel nice. Kratom did help me feel nice; its an opiate imitator.

(stands on soapbox) (prepares to state brave yet heretical opinion) Matcha tastes exactly like dirt and I don't understand how anyone likes it (stands tall, eyes closed, fists balled, ready for the tumult)

Can I request that no one show me anymore videos of RFK Jr or Kid Rock's bare chests? They're gross and remind me of the time my ex's drunk step dad tried to kiss me. Their bare chests are giving drunk step dad vibes. They're gross and weird.

My algorithms are all screwed up. My 13 year old nephew watches my YouTube in another state, my sister uses one of my streaming services, I have 4 kids logged in. "WHO'S WATCHING MURDER SHOWS?!? oh your Auntie, I guess that's ok." Its nice to see my nephew isn't in the "manosphere" We share here

NY Times Pitchbot@nytpitchbot.bsky.social

Donald Trump's tariffs have destroyed my business. But my woke daughter's streaming history has destroyed my Netflix recommendation algorithm. I have never felt more politically homeless.

I rarely think biblical answers help people but he could try, "give all you have to the poor..."

it’s genuinely reassuring to me that this is the most miserable and paranoid person in the entire world

Get yourself a based elderly neighbor. She has dinner with our family often because cooking is difficult when you're elderly. Tonight she told me about how she's ready to fight for her neighbors. It's adorable and incredibly inspiring. I love this lady. Everyone should have someone like her.

My coworker got employee of the month but I told her I wouldn't trade shifts unless she gave me her certificate, so she did. I'm employee of the month now, right? RIGHT?!? #NobelPeacePrize

@MargaretKilljoy or @iwriteok.bsky.social said in a podcast about how when times are scary, you should build community. I was scared so I began meeting my neighbors, and aggressively befriending them. I started driving the elderly lady to the doctor. I began bringing trash cans up to their houses.

I dropped off cookies for every neighbor on Christmas Eve. And I noticed something beautiful. Other neighbors were outside talking to each other. The area I live in has a bad reputation and our mostly rental houses are rundown, but we have a community now. My street is a micro community.

I am less afraid. So, if these times are scaring you, build community. I just told you how and I promise you'll be less afraid. It worked for me. The side benefit of building a community is now I have good friends and that's wonderful too.

I paid the water for that family when the shut off guy showed up. I allowed my kids to play in the street and their noise brought out other kids who brought out parents. I did a mini fireworks show on independence day that brought out the older guy who has a house full of firecrackers, I guess.

If any artist is forced, they need to malicious compliance the heck out of it. If they normally play the cello, instead sing, badly, about how it's fascism. If you normally sing, butcher a cello on stage, or better yet, bring a violin and make it screech. I love malicious compliance.

New in PN: The regime wants to turn artists into performing monkeys "Freedom of speech and freedom of expression is the right to criticize the ruler. But it’s also the right to not play jazz vibraphone if you don’t want to — not even if the ruler says you must for his greater glory."

My job has been using Palantir AI software to write the schedule. Some nights every single nurse is scheduled. Other nights it thinks one nurse can handle the entire ER. The wildest part for me is that when it messes up, everyone just sort of shrugs and says, "it's AI, can't do anything about it."

Benjamin Johns@baj.bsky.social

The only reason Palantir software is hard to abuse is that much of it is horseshit "AI features" that don't work at all, and most of the rest of it are basic database search features that also don't work at all.

Okay folks, we need to have a chat. For thousands of years, man has been on the ground. Only in the last 150 years, we figured out how to fly. Why the heck are y'all closing the blinds in the airplane?!? Do you not find it absolutely amazing? Are you really that unimpressed? #flight

Every time we take to the sky, we're trespassing. We don't belong there. Don't you want to see the sights our ancestors couldn't? In other news, I'm never not getting a window seat again.

Here's the thing I'll add to this: if they get away with this, do you really think they'll stop at "democratic" cities? Nope, they're coming to every city eventually. We can't let them do this. If LA, DC and Portland aren't safe from martial law, nobody is safe.

When they arrive at my hospital I'm going to tell them that the person they're looking for is in MRI right now. Go right in, sir, those no metal signs don't apply to law enforcement. I don't care if the MRI is damaged.

At a doctor’s office — with no warrants, masked, no ID 😳 What are we doing? 🇺🇸

I told my young coworker tonight that it's no longer Republicans and Democrats, it's Nazis and not Nazis. All our disagreements need to be put aside until we take care of our Nazi problem.

There's website to report #DEI hires. I reported a South African Nazi who is rumored to have been an illegal immigrant He works in that new government office called #DOGE He has no government experience. here's the email address DEIAtruth@opm.gov

It would be terrible if that email was so flooded with reports like mine that they couldn't do any serious damage to real people who need their jobs. Don't clog up that email with unimportant nonsense.

I thought I was okay, I went to #bjj to try to burn off my rage the way I do, maybe I'd have been chill but on the way home I saw a #cybertruck and found myself screaming, "fucking Nazi!" As I leaned out the window with my middle finger up. What am I going to do?

I own absolutely nothing. I'm drowning in student loans and medical debt. My credit score is abhorrent. There's nothing in my bank account. Why exactly should I be worried about China having my data? What exactly are they going to do to me anyway? #tictok #redbook
